Jelena moves to semis..

By Pierre Cantin
Date: 5/10/2001

It's a done deal, Jelena is now part of the top 10 thanks to a very easy win today against Francesca Schiavone 6-2, 6-0 in the third round of the Kremlin Cup played in Moscow, Russia.

Although many expected Jelena to move on easily, I doubt anyone would have predicted a 51 minute crush by Jelena against Schiavone who had been playing very good tennis this week. It's hard to point out one particular aspect in which Jelena dominated because she basically did everything better and fully earned the right to enter the top 10 and a spot in the semifinals.

She will now face Italian Silvia Farina-Elia who struggled in the start but then came back to defeat Daja Bedanova 1-6, 7-6, 6-4.

Important note: With Elena Dementieva's victory over Martina Hingis, Jelena is now the top ranked remaining player..the other semifinalist being Anastasia Myskina.
